Legendary American illustrator Murray Tinkelman creates a fantasy world
filled with a dragon, a mosque, and a nineteenth-century Clipper ship
floating in the clouds. It's a prime example of Tinkelman's signature
style composed of thousands of minute crosshatches. To some extent, his
style is an evolution of Pointillism, where, close up, it's an
abstraction, but as you move back, the human eye and brain blend the
dots together from a distance to reveal a dreamy image.
Based on the
label on the verso and the pictures' narrative and degree of finish, it
appears to have been done on assignment for H.P. Lovecraft's Dream Quest
of Unknown Kadath. Based on a search, we can not determine if it was
published. Yet in the 1970s, not everything reproduced was subsequently
scanned and uploaded to the internet. The work is signed and dated in
the upper right, initialed and dated below the mosque, and also signed
on the verso. Elegantly framed under glass to 22.5 x 20.07
